Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks sponsored this podcast.

Palo Alto Networks John Morello, vice president of product, has for a long time talked about the basics that come with cloud native security. In this edition of The New Stack Makers, hosted by Alex Williams, founder and publisher of The New Stack, Morello discusses how APIs are less the weakest link and are more so better known due to the widespread use of APIs, especially in the past five years. There are more people developing APIs, there are more people consuming APIS and there are more attackers who are exploiting APIs — and that makes the basics more important than ever both now and as more applications go online.
